PS4, Vita Getting Rhythm-Based Roguelike Crypt of the Necrodancer

Crypt of the Necrodancer, the rhythm-based roguelike game from developer Brace Yourself Games, is coming to PlayStation 4 and Vita.

Announced via the PlayStation Blog, the game is being ported to Sony platforms. It originally launched on PC in back in April. In the game, players and enemies both move to a beat, requiring strategic positioning to get through its levels. Dungeons are procedurally generated, and the game is a roguelike, meaning that progress resets upon death.

The PS4 and Vita versions of the game are also getting an exclusive remix of the soundtrack. It'll be playable in the game, and it's done in chiptunes style by the composer of Shovel Knight. If you don't want to play with either the original or remixed soundtrack, you can use your own MP3s as backing tracks to the levels.

GameSpot critic Britton Peele thought that the PC version of Crypt of the Necrodancer was great, and you can read our review of it here.
